Big weekend for weddings… bring on the sunshine! If you’re attending a good-old Wisconsin wedding this weekend, let’s hope The Traveling Photo Booth will be there. This creative vendor originated in Minneapolis, but has since expanded to Wisconsin and the greater mid-west. The traveling booth provides a modern twist on the classic photo booth and hours of fun for wedding guests. Double strips provide a copy of every photo for the guest as well as the bride and groom. What a great way to capture wedding memories and create a unique guest book.

Anya Wait has an eye for design. While many photographers love taking baby photos, few capture the moments and details like this Madison area photographer. When not chasing her own 5 children, Anya works with families to create a custom experience which tells a story of a new and celebrated life. Her business began from combining her two loves of black & white photography and babies, and now Anya’s work is so popular that her sessions fill up quite far in advance. To capture your little one’s special moments, visit anyawait.com.

Madison-based photographers, Jennifer and Andrew Keeley Yonda, are a husband and wife team who love beautiful photographs. In addition to taking photos, they enjoy playing music, urban planning, boggle, capoeira, The Office (mostly the American version), Dr. Who (British sci-fi), kids, hardwood floors, food and cats (though they’re both allergic). They specialize in weddings, but enjoy all areas of photography, and especially love using our Wisconsin landscape as a natural backdrop. See their work at yondaphotography.com.
